Yihenew Belay - Introspection (Outro) lyrics

Introspection (Outro) (CHORUS) What would you try to do if you was me? What would you try to do if you was me? Would you sit up on the side and watch just like a movie scene Or make a move to go pursue all of your truest dreams? What would you try to do if you was me? Really... What would you try to do if you was me? Would you sit up on the side and watch just like a movie scene Or make a move to go pursue all of your truest dreams? (VERSE 1) Life up in The Bay and LA is so new to me On the brink of something big it's suiting me suitably Told myself it's time to go and chase what you deserve f** the moon and the stars I'm taking the universe It's already bad enough I'm dealing with Lucifer Now I've made some enemies and I know that they're soon to lurk Been so sedated lately I don't what is what? Tangled in the middle of bullsh** playing double dutch Metaphor for how I'm caught up in the whirlwinds I'm Screaming "Asential!" until the world ends Took so many L's it's time I get my first win Used to feel worthless til I found purpose in these verses sh** ain't perfect but that's just how life works When I give you that real sh** just know that it might hurt Been the villain because my city treated me like dirt Life a b**h I've f**ed her raw then gave her my white shirt My Momma was blind first, now her neck and spine hurt Watching that since 9 had me I cry until my eyes hurt Ironic while my dad and brother fighting and it ain't getting better Conflicted to make a difference cuz this can't be forever... (CHORUS) So What would you try to do if you was me? I gotta know What would you try to do if you was me? Would you sit up on the side and watch just like a movie scene Or make a move to go pursue all of your truest dreams (2x) (VERSE 2) That's just the way it is... The way it goes And as I'm saying this.. Hope that you save your soul We gotta save the kids cuz they too young to pay the toll I'll be the shepherd for em so I can pave the road Show that there's more to life and beauty in the struggle I've been thru so much sh** that truly I am humbled Coming out a Community that is troubled Moved to the west and opportunities done doubled Until we meet again I've been on this odyssey, fulfilling this prophecy Nobody is stopping me so Somebody Tell me something that I don't know Every day I'm Feeling next up n***a I hope so This that sh** to ease ya mind to shove Complacency Ever since a little one that sh** just ain't for me So Please Keep ya negative energy away from me So determined you can't stop who or what I aim to be Still gotta get my momma new crib And Take my dad out that taxi to put him in a new whip I swear the ones who the talk the most be the ones that don't Do sh** I'd told everyone i'd make it now it's time to prove it Can't let the cycle repeat and forever complain So I broke it knowing that all of the pleasures I'll gain Will be enough to feed the fam despite the Pressures it brings But I'd rather go and risk it all than to Never had changed and that's real....
